Bongos Cornucopia

Bongos Cornucopia is the successor of Bongos Skinned Map. It adds many extra Bongos bars to your interface. Some bars are really simple, others are highly customizable.
Hardcore users may be glad to know that, besides Bongos Cornucopia being divided into several addons, most of them are modular.
Please always use the newest Bongos 3 version to prevent bugs!

Quests, PvP and Durability: Changed how these bars take control of their frames to avoid interference with other mods

PvP: fixed a bug causing the BG bar to not be correctly sized in arenas

Sounds great, then it's definately worth the wait. While I'm not an author myself (if I could ever make myself sit down long enough to teach myself), I do like how Ace authors have a number of libraries to help write addons, as well as integrate with others and the game.

I'll keep an eye out and when you do release, I'll provide any beta testing help you might still need.

Originally posted by Fashionabull Any news on your "HUGE" project? As a fan of Bongos Cornucopia and Scrap, really interested to see what else you come up with.

I can ensure you that Scrap and Cornucopia are my main priorities right now. However, I think I didn't explain myself as I wanted to in my last post. Yes, I'm working on something HUGE, but it's not the successor of Cornucopia.
I didn't want to release any details until the project is operational, but it is almost ready (Finally!) and as I know you're a long time user... here it goes.
Do you know what libraries are? Have you ever heard of Ace3? Well, if you know, read the long answer, which should be quite enlightening. If you don't, you will have to stick with the short one.

Short Answer (for the average user): I'm working in something really complicated, that is totally necessary to apply my ideas for Cornucopia's successor and should be useful for my other mods or even other addon's authors.

Long Answer (for authors, coders, advanced users,...): I really needed a library that could allow me to easily create options for Cornucopia, but couldn't find any one that could fill my needs. Even AceConfig3 was too inflexible and didn't look like Blizzard default interface. So, I decided to create my own.
My objectives are to create an extremely versatile library that is easy to use, not only by users and addon's authors, but also for who wants to create his own menu types, layouts, or even widgets! I plan to start using it on Scrap first (that's how I'm going to get rid of the dropdown menu) and see how it runs. When it is 100% functional, I will finally go for Cornucopia.

I hope I've been clear enough. If something is not well written/explained, my apologies, because I'm not a native English speaker.

Originally posted by jaliborc I ensure you that leaving Cornucopia is not one my plans for the future. I've not been updating my mods because I'm working on something HUGE... And big projects take much time when its an "one men job". XD

I expect to upload a beta version soon at it is at an advanced evolution state.

Originally posted by Darkon I'm not much of a poster, but I feel this warranted a reply.

Dear Jaliborc,

I hope you consider adapting Cornucopia to the new Dominos mod for purposes too obvious to state. Many people use your mod for it's many additional modular features and would appreciate---no, idolize you if you did not discontinue your amazing work. Please consider this! :O

Long-time user, first time replier,

maybe you can rewrite cornucopia for dominos or take over bongos3

Those are the 2 options I see right now: or I adapt Cornucopia for Dominos, or I create my own addon. But I will never take over Bongos: I can inspire that addon with Bongos, but I don't appreciate taking over other people creations.

I don't get it, why would Tuller abandon such a great addon, and start over from ground to up for next generation action bar.... wtf.

I also have many questions and opinions about this "start over", but I think it's not appropriate to discuss other authors' decisions.

maybe you can rewrite cornucopia for dominos, and add features such as exp/rep bar which tuller stripped from dominos, etc or take over bongos3 roll out your own? similar to fan updated release of original version but with some added feature. At least bongos is licensed under open source BSD similar to GPL, http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php

Originally posted by Everglow So Tuller has dumped Bongos and turned his focus to Dominos, a trimmed down version of Bongos with most of the little-used functionality removed. I have it on the character I use for testing, and I like it. It does all the things I need, and is less bloated. The only problem is... woe is me.... it doesn't have a CORNUCOPIA. How can I live without my Bongos Minimap?

jaliborc... could you, would you, do you have plans for a Dominos Cornucopia?

Unfortunately, I still have no idea about what I'm going to do.
I really wasn't expecting that Tuller would dump Bongos.
